On his way back from the train station on Hearth's Warming Day, Fancy Pants' scarf blows into an alley. When he goes to retrieve it, he finds a white coated Pegasus foal wrapped in an apron sleeping in a cardboard box.

Not wanting to leave an innocent filly out in the cold on her own on Hearth's Warming, he takes her back to his manor.

Rose Aphid wakes up, not in the cardboard box she fell asleep in, but some plush looking room that she'd heard royalty living in in stories.

When a unicorn walks in, she's frightened... until she senses the caring aura coming from him. Had this pony brought her here? Why? And why did he care about her?

My second fic involving Rose Aphid. This will go a lot differently than my other one, but i hope will be enjoyable for all, none the less.

Life can be tough when you're part of the in-crowd, so it helps to have a few friends you can turn to. For one filly, realizing who those friends are might mean losing the only friend she's ever known. If only she had the courage to face her biggest fear, things might be different.

Maybe this year...

Dogs act like they love their families, but nopony will ever know for sure. More importantly, Winona's family loves her. She couldn't ask for more. But she does love them. She really does.

After a string of defeats at the hands of Earthrealm, Shao Kahn decides to target somewhere else for a change, if nothing else for a bit of a morale boost. Finding a realm full of technicolor marshmallow ponies, he figures it would be a good way to let off some steam.

He may have slightly underestimated them.

A Mortal Kombat / MLP oneshot crossover.

Rainbow Dash is an unlikely matchmaker, but she's also not a pony that leaves her friends hanging. When she sees the feelings Applejack and Rarity have for each other, she tries to get them together, but ends up struggling with the knowledge that those very feelings may end up keeping them apart.

Words can bring joy. Words can bring pain. Words can bring knowledge.
In the hands of the right pony, they can bring all of these things at once.
In the lands outside the fledgeling Equestria, one such pony has tracked a newfound fable back to its source, and she has a few choice words of her own prepared, because words... words have power.

Only one hope remains. Armed with swords, spells, snacks, and a bag of dice, five heroes band together to defeat the forces of evil… if their rolls are good enough.

You'd think that being trapped in stone would mean that, if nothing else, I could get some peace and quiet. Unfortunately, it seems that Celestia has other ideas.

She has appointed these ponies... these 'Keepers', as she calls them, to keep me entertained during my incarceration.

Honestly? I'd prefer the boredom.
